Wezi-tec, a subsidiary of Weber, a German maker of systems and components for the automotive and other sectors, has received approval for a new investment at its factory in Legnica (Dolnoslaskie voivodship), in the Legnica Special Economic Zone. The company will invest at least €0.5m to build a modern tool shop for making extrusion molds and parts thereof, thus ending its reliance on external, mostly foreign-based, suppliers, as well as creating a potential new revenue stream. The project will create several new jobs and safeguard at least 345 existing ones.

The Legnica plant makes modules for car interiors, boots, and the engine area, among other products. The new project is Wezi-tec’s third investment in Legnica.
